Abstract

In order to offer an improved brake device without vacuum booster, in the case of which brake device the zero point of the cylinder piston remains as far as possible permanently within defined narrow tolerances and at the same time the impact noise is reliably reduced, it is proposed that the stop disk is elastically reversibly compressible in an axial direction over a defined compression travel and has the compression travel delimited, the delimitation being defined in a travel-controlled manner.

Claims (17)

1. A brake device for a hydraulic motor vehicle brake system without vacuum booster, comprising:

a housing with at least one cylinder bore in which a cylinder piston is guided so as to be linearly displaceable along a center axis in an actuation direction and in a release direction directed oppositely to the actuation direction; and

a stop disk which delimits movement of the cylinder piston in the release direction and thus defines a non-actuated initial position of said cylinder piston,

wherein the stop disk is elastically reversibly compressible in an axial direction over a defined compression travel and delimits the compression travel, said delimitation being defined in a travel-controlled manner,

wherein the stop disk has an elastomer casing and a core which is at least partially encased by the casing, wherein the core is constructed from a more rigid material in relation to the casing.

2. The brake device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the stop disk has a stop plane which is orthogonal with respect to the center axis and against which the cylinder piston bears in its non-actuated initial position, wherein the core has multiple elevations which are extended forward axially in the actuation direction as far as the stop plane and which are arranged spaced apart from one another in the circumferential direction.

3. The brake device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the elevations form flat plateaus, the axial end surfaces of which are arranged in the stop plane.

4. The brake device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the casing has, between two adjacent elevations in the circumferential direction, at least one protuberance which is arranged between two elevations in the circumferential direction and which is extended forward above the stop plane in the actuation direction.

5. The brake device as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the casing has at least one depression which is formed below the stop plane in the actuation direction and which is arranged directly adjacent to at least one protuberance.

6. The brake device as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the protuberance is in the form of a rib which is formed in a face side of the stop disk so as to extend between a radial inner dimension and a radial outer dimension.

7. A brake device for a hydraulic motor vehicle brake system without vacuum booster, comprising:

a housing with at least one cylinder bore in which a cylinder piston is guided so as to be linearly displaceable along a center axis in an actuation direction and in a release direction directed oppositely to the actuation direction; and

a stop disk which delimits movement of the cylinder piston in the release direction and thus defines a non-actuated initial position of said cylinder piston,

wherein the stop disk is elastically reversibly compressible in an axial direction over a defined compression travel and delimits the compression travel, said delimitation being defined in a travel-controlled manner, and

wherein the casing has multiple radial projections which are distributed uniformly in the circumferential direction and are extended forward in the radial direction beyond a radial outer side of the stop disk and so as to be larger than a diameter of the cylinder bore.

8. The brake device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the stop disk is of substantially plane-symmetrical construction in relation to a central plane which is orthogonal with respect to the center axis.

9. The brake device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the housing has at least one support projection which projects radially inward into the cylinder bore and on which the stop disk is supported in the release direction.
